Made entirely in the USA, LP’s Americana Series of Cajons are constructed using hand-selected, 11-ply, plantation grown Baltic Birch, which is highly durable and incredibly resonant. Each cajon is carefully made by hand using a uniquely engineered design that optimizes the instrument’s acoustic performance and delivers rich, deep bass tones. The Americana String Style Cajon combines a hand-selected, exotic African Sapele wood front plate with highly responsive, custom-designed D’Addario strings, which create a crisp vocalization that’s essential for the traditional Flamenco sound. LP’s state-of-the-art tuning mechanism is easy to reach and allows you to control string sensitivity and tonal response. Whether you’re choosing a cajon to perform traditional world music or you’re a drum set player looking for rhythmic solution for your “unplugged” gigs, the Americana Series Cajons from LP are undoubtedly the most well-made, best sounding cajons in the world.

I love the tone of this cajon. It feels solid and sounds awesome. I have never pplayed another cjon that TUNES this easily. Most cajons require you to get off the box, turn it upside down and then look for an allen key that fits. The Americana String Cajon by LP actually utilizes an ingenious system which allows you to tune the cajon using a stanard size drum key, without turning the box on it's head. I recommend this to any working percussionist. This is a real hands on review from Sammy @ Sam Ash Sarasota.
